Syracuse is an "EVENT" town. Always has been always will be. Hold a good EVENT and people show up.

Basketball games are EVENTS
Taste of Syracuse is an EVENT
Big concerts at the Dome are EVENTS

Those 6 Saturday's SU has a home football game need to be events!! The outside of a new stadium or the dome on gameday needs to be a cross between the NYS Fair Midway and the Taste of Syracuse. Have a tailgating scene and food trucks everywhere. Just like at the Fan Fest have a booth were people can get pictures with former players. Maybe have some games for kids. Make those 6 days an "EVENT" and people will show up regardless if SU is winning or losing on the field.

The world has changed and times have changed. SU hasn't changed over time. The days of people just showing up "for the games" are long over with. Need to dress up the games with bells and whistles to draw people in. Otherwise people can stay at home and watch the games on TV for free on their 55 or 60 inch TV and are fine with it. Give people a reason to leave there house and head up to the Dome. Selling "football" isn't enough anymore (at least in Syracuse it isn't, in SEC country its a different story)
